I am having issues calibrating my capactive fuel sensors in my RV-7 and was wondering if anyone else may have experienced what I am going through. Basically I am not getting any fuel level reading on my Dynon EMS 120. At this point I am ready to rip out the flop tubes, and install float fuel level senders and fuel pickups. Calibrating the fuel tanks is the only thing left to do before I schedule my final inspection and with it now September, I want to fly before a Southern Ontario winter grounds us for 4 months.
I have studied and manuals for the Princeton Units that are installed between the Dynon EMS and the fuel tanks and have calibrated them as per the instrucctions. I have also followed the Dynon calibration procedures to the letter on several occassions and each time I get a "no sensor detected" message on the Dynon. No matter how much fuel I put into the tanks, I cannot get a fuel level reading. This happens with BOTH tanks. I have traced the wiring back and forth and even swapped the left tank for the right tank inputs and still no joy.
I have called the Princeton people and the Dynon tech reps and have followed their instructions to the "T" but still tonight I could not get a fuel level reading .
I am at my wits end. Can anyone help?
